So after the comp I decided to rebuild. I talked to a buddy of mine who is huge into it right now. He said I needed to go sub up and aero port back or side. If I went back I'd still be choking the port out. I also wanted to add a battery. So here's where I had to brain storm. There wasn't anywhere to put a second battery in the back so I decided to notch the box. The issue there was I took some air space away. So I moved my amp location and made the box deeper. This is the final product at this moment. I say that because I'm getting ready to order some Incriminator amps so the rack is gonna change.

Let me first start by saying I have mad respect for walls or laying down seats you don't need for more room. But for me I like the challenge of keeping my room, always have. I have a wife and 4 kids that still ride with me in a daily basis. I've always liked it loud but you also got to be able to hear the words clearly. So with this build I wanted to compete, not to win just for fun, and keep all of my seating. I bought an American Bass XFL 15 when I had my van and still had my 12-15 year old Diamond Audio Amps. When I got the Durango I built a sub back port back box and fastened the amps to the back of the seat. It was basic clean looking even though I never finished the amp rack. And my kicks didn't turn out horrible for my first set. But as you can see I was choking out the port and the sub was super close to the hatch. Fast forward after a trip to Slamology in 2019 I got the itch. I completed 1 time. Placed 3rd but only clamped like 500w. Wasn't good enough...to be continued.

When I want a deal I say one of two things.
"This is exctly what I need, I honestly expected to pay less, is there ANY room to move so I can PayPal you/come get and pay you ASAP?"
Or
"I really want this item, but I always try to get a deal, is there anything worth trading that might benefit us both?"
I seem to be really good at choosing which one to use on who. If I cannot get any rapport I'm usually too nervous about the situation. lmao

You're a rarity there. I typically try and tell someone where my mind is when I contact. If I look at it and say "eh he's about 30 over what I want to pay' I message them and ask if that price is good with them. Nothing worse than wasting my time or the seller's.

Hey gentlemen, what's your favorite belt sander......
I need one but I'm looking for one for the FIL.
Portable for both. He will finish wood mostly. If I could find it I would take a motor from a table top prograde and pop a handle and trigger on that bitch. Heavy? Good. Idiots cant pick it up, and I dont have to bolt it down as hard as my grandpa's old one in his jig.
Someone needs to unabashedly make power tools for ogre mutations like me. We have money. We want it. Grandpa had it kinda. Why are we more suck?

Oooooohweeeee
I have been feet up almost all week.
The way my brain has to deal with the inflammation from the old meds being long gone and the new ones take a long time to kick in is wild. Hunter S Thompson would bail on this ride from the acceleration alone. LMAO
